Pluck the petals from my hair
As sunlight smiles
Down on us.
Summer’s laughter still
heard through the trees.
Take my hand.
No promise
Of tomorrow.
Today, with you
Is enough.

Thanks Michael. I’ve had one poem published by an online journal. I’m not sure if that’a what you meant. Next week, I think, I will have a piece of Flash Fiction published by the same journal. I’ve been toying with the idea of a book of poetry or possibly a “blog” book.
Is that what you were talking about?
